Brothers Oren, Alon, and Tal Alexander were sentenced to 30 years in federal prison in Manhattan on Tuesday after a jury convicted them of a yearslong sex trafficking and sexual assault scheme. U.S. District Judge Valerie Caproni rejected requests for life sentences and the 15-year minimums, ordering supervised release and fines.
U.S. District Judge Valerie Caproni handed down concurrent 30-year prison sentences for twins Oren and Alon Alexander, 39, and their brother Tal Alexander, 40, in a packed Manhattan courtroom on Tuesday, October 27, 2026. Federal prosecutors sought life terms for the three men, while defense lawyers urged the mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison.
Each brother also received 10 years of supervised release and was ordered to undergo court-approved sex offender treatment.
Oren and Tal operated in elite real estate circles before their arrests in December 2024. The pair scaled the ranks at Douglas Elliman, brokering multi-million-dollar deals including the nearly $240 million sale of a penthouse in 2019 that set a record for residential sales in the United States. They later launched their own brokerage, Official, while Alon managed the family’s private security business.
Jury Convicts Brothers on All Counts
Prosecutors presented evidence that the trio targeted at least 70 women over more than a decade, beginning as early as their high school years in the early 2000s. A 12-person federal jury convicted the brothers on March 9 on all 10 counts, which included conspiracy to commit sex trafficking and multiple charges of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion.
During Tuesday’s seven-hour hearing, a dozen victims spoke in open court about the trauma inflicted by the assaults. Other witnesses detailed how the brothers used drugs to incapacitate victims at luxury properties in Miami, New York, the Hamptons, Aspen, and on a Caribbean cruise.

One accuser, Katie Moore, described the psychological toll of discovering the disparity between the brothers’ public lives and their actions. Every so often, I would look the brothers up online, and find that their carefully curated facade was still intact—their careers, social clout, the women they somehow convinced to marry them
Moore told the courtroom.
Judge Compares Defendants to Jekyll and Hyde
My view of the defendants was that they were a lot like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,
Caproni told Tal Alexander. The judge weighed character witnesses who described the defendants as devoted fathers and gentlemen against the accounts of survivors who experienced them as predators.
Caproni noted that although their conduct was monstrous, she did not believe they were entirely beyond redemption.
Your conduct was monstrous.

Tal Alexander was ordered to pay $350,000 in fines, while Oren and Alon Alexander must pay $300,000 each. Oren received another $50,000 fine relating to the production of child sexual abuse material involving a recorded video of a 17-year-old girl. Caproni stated she would request that the Bureau of Prisons consult experts regarding whether the brothers should serve their time in separate facilities, expressing concern that they would act as bad influences on one another.
Brothers Deny Charges and Plan Appeals
The brothers maintained their innocence throughout the proceedings and denied the core allegations before receiving their sentences.

Oren Alexander attributed his mindset to the hookup culture of the early 2000s and expressed regret for his past behavior and crude language, but insisted he never broke the law. Alon Alexander became emotional while speaking about his wife and daughters, telling the court he was innocent of the charges.
Defense attorneys, including Marc Agnifilo, confirmed that all three brothers plan to appeal their convictions. Agnifilo argued that the 30-year terms were excessive compared to sentences typically handed down in other federal cases.
